Michael Hadley had it all. Fast cars, money and beautiful women. He was a billionaire and a champion Speedway racing driver. Life in the fast lane was good until a temptress from his past reappeared and caused him to spin out of control. Willow Roth had beauty, brains and class. She was his sister’s best friend and now in his employ.

For Willow, love and sex represented the dualities of life. One could not exist without the other. Through the heartache and regrets of their collusive past, they would eventually reunite to understand their place together in an imperfect world.

"Makes a reader feel like a time traveler plopped down among men who were by turns vicious and visionary."—The Christian Science Monitor The modern American economy was the creation of four men: Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, Jay Gould, and J. P. Morgan. They were the giants of the Gilded Age, a moment of riotous growth that established America as the richest, most inventive, and most productive country on the planet. Acclaimed author Charles R. Morris vividly brings the men and their times to life. The ruthlessly competitive Carnegie, the imperial Rockefeller, and the provocateur Gould were obsessed with progress, experiment, and speed. They were balanced by Morgan, the gentleman businessman, who fought, instead, for a global trust in American business. Through their antagonism and their verve, they built an industrial behemoth—and a country of middle-class consumers. The Tycoons tells the incredible story of how these four determined men wrenched the economy into the modern age, inventing a nation of full economic participation that could not have been imagined only a few decades earlier.

1964 was a violent time: Kennedy was murdered in Dallas just a few months before, Vietnam was a bubbling police action, soon to boil over into war, and the South was being desegregated one bloody confrontation at a time. Construction crews were ripping and blasting through Vermont's virgin forests, building Interstate 91, the road that would drag Vermont into the present. It was a violent time for Rick Wallace, working as a grunt laborer, chucking steel for drillers, and hauling dynamite to blast the ledges on the 2.14- mile segment of Interstate 91, that non-union B.V. DeBoni & Sons, had snatched out from under the noses of the big unionized contractors. The union, determined to make the Interstate a closed shop, wooed DeBoni's crew of moonlighting, hardscrabble farmers, while hot-tempered Charlie DeBoni vowed he'd go union "over my dead body." But it was union organizer, Big Jim Jenson, who died in a fiery explosion, and Whitey, DeBoni's head mechanic, and only black employee, was the prime suspect because he and Jenson had gone toe-to-toe over union bigotry. Sleepy Bellows Falls was suddenly engulfed in racist terror, and Rick Wallace, and his guitar-playing buddy, Jack North, took on the local bigots to help their friend, Whitey. But who killed Jim Jenson? Forty years later, Rick still needed to know the answer.
